I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Villainess’ Older Brother

ear…well I will listen to what you have to say.
Speak.”  

 

“Why don’t you ask Mr.
Waynes?” 

 

“Parepantle?”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

 

“Yes.
He knows about everything that goes on in this house.
If Dianna was learning swordsmanship from the guard knights or was practicing her swordsmanship somewhere in the mansion he would know.”

 

Elysse considered Ilvalino’s words, then ordered a maid to go find the butler.
While they waited for the butler to arrive Elysse asked Ilvalino about how he came to prepare the sportswear. 

 

“Cain had nothing to do with the sportswear.
Romy was having trouble convincing Dianna to not wear sportswear.
So, to keep Dianna from going in sportswear I proposed that I would prepare sportswear and persuaded Dianna to wear a dress.” 

 

“Big brother says it’s cool to not show the things that you can do so when opportunity strikes, I can pull my ability out of my back pocket.
Because of that for the first time, Di decided to wear a dress.”

 

“I’m sorry.
If I am told to bring out the clothes, I have no choice but to comply.”

 

Dianna had a moved look on her face and Ilvalino smiled.
He had thought that the best way to keep the peace was to prepare the sportswear and not bring it out.
He didn’t think they would allow Dianna to participate in the training. 

 

“I did not expect Prince Arundilano to say what he said…”

 

Elysse sighed as a knock from the door came and the butler Waynes Parepantle entered the tearoom.

 

“Mr.
Waynes.
Have you seen Dianna participating in swordsmanship training anywhere on the grounds of the mansion?” 

 

Ilvalino asked the butler.
In such instances, the first person to speak should have been Elysse.
It was considered rude to ask a question to a guest that Elysse—the woman of the house—called. 

 

However, Ilvalino had been rude and asked the question first. 

 

“Ilvalino, know your place.” 

 

As expected, Ilvalino received a rebuke from Parapentle.
Ilvalino stood from the sofa and bowed in apology. 

 

“Madam.
If your question is the same as Ilvalino’s the answer is “No”.
There is no evidence that I can provide to suggest that Dianna has been practicing swordsmanship with the guard knights or anywhere on the Elandark family premises.” Parapentle said in answer to Elysse’s inquiry. 

 

He bowed slightly, smiled, then glanced at Cain and Ilvalino. 

 

“Parapentle…I will ask you a question.” 

 

“Ask me anything.” 

 

Parapentle straightened and turned toward Elysse once again.
He raised his right hand and held it over his chest as he waited for her words.

“Where did Dianna learn swordsmanship?” 

 

The moment they heard Elysse’s question, Ilvalino who had his head still lowered trembled, and Cain cowered into the couch with his head buried in his free hand. 

 

“In Cain’s room.
Dianna pretends to be the Girl Knight Nina.
This was Cain’s solution to the problem of Dianna wanting to learn swordsmanship.” 

 

Easily, the children were defeated by the adults.
